Comment 117 for bug 291760

I can confirm that bug on my (brand new) HP Probook 5310m. "lshw -c network" shows :

description: Wireless interface
       product: PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh] Network Connection
       vendor: Intel Corporation

configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwlagn driverversion=2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13.i686 firmware=8.24.2.12 ip=192.168.1.101 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11abgn

In my case, I have a network which is repeated at the other end of the house, so that everybody can connect to it without problems. Unfortunately, the connection breaks frequently (hyper-frustrating), and it ends only when I disconnect the repeater. /var/log/messages shows :
